I'm wrapped in the arms of a broken man

And he asks "are you ready?

Cause I'll take you as far as I can

If you would just let me"

Don't you think that I should hold you

Don't you think that's what I should do

So I'm wrapped in the arms of a broken man

But he'll never have me

I've been thrown to wonderworlds

See if I flit and flow just watch me swirl

And if I think you crush me

You say "Don't worry, baby

My pretty"

In this day

And I can't get away

Cause I'm just a bird in a cage with a rage

And he can't step away

Cause I am the girl that he can't save

I'll never know how the moon stays so still

I'll never know how the moon stays so still

I've been thrown to wonderworlds

See if I flit and flow just watch me swirl

And if I think you crush me

You say "Don't worry, baby

My pretty"

Hold me, soothe me, I'm just your doll now scold me

Break me, bruise me, wear me out and soothe me

Love me, love me, love me

I've been thrown to wonderworlds

See if I flit and flow just watch me swirl

And if I think you crush me

You say "Don't worry, baby, don't worry babe"

I've been thrown to wonderworlds

See if I flit and flow just watch me swirl

Around you and you say "Don't worry, baby

My pretty"
